In WI this is not the referee's responsibility.

It's not a referee's responsibility to enforce a rule that's in the book?

One is a school issue taken up with the state and doesn't fall under our jurisdiction in WI. Wearing a lanyard is not a rule...but a requirement in the manual...and if you worked without a lanyard properly I wouldn't have an issue at all.

We notify the state and the state takes up the issue with that school. I have not heard about this being an issue in WI.

Gotcha. You made it sound like WI referees didn't care about or are supposed to ignore the uniform rule.

I am guessing most officials can't tell you if the uniforms legal or illegal.

This is why I think this comparison is faulty. We do a lot of things that are never going to be in any manual, but if you want to work you will do them. ;)

So, you do care. Otherwise why the requirement to report it to the state office?

And in VA a black lanyard or "smitty" is listed as part of the official uniform for the state tournament. Now, I have no idea what effect on an official's state tourney career not having a lanyard would have.

Actually...
If rolling up your sleeves accents the belt you are wearing... :D

Besides, the sleeves get in the way when you are shooting baskets during intermissions. :D
